What to Watch Tonight: Green Arrow Rooms With Melissa & Joey, Broadchurch Debuts and More

On TV this Wednesday: Melissa & Joey host a Smallville hero, Broadchurch makes its American debut, Campsizzles and, like sands through the hourglass, so are the Top Chef Masters. Here are 10 programs to keep on your radar.

10 pm Broadchurch (BBC America)| Series premiere: This popular British drama follows two detectives — played by David Tennant (Doctor Who) and Olivia Colman (Canada’s Peep Show) – investigating a young boy’s murder in a British seaside town. (Fun fact: Fox recently announced that an American adaptation is in the works.)

10 pm Camp (NBC)| A heat wave sets in, Buzz plans an out-of-control party for his 16th birthday, and Cole and Mack spend a fun afternoon in town together.

10 pm Top Chef Masters (Bravo)|Days of Our Lives cast members are on hand when the chefs are asked to create a meal that represents the daytime drama staples of sex, murder and greed.

Why do we keep trying to remake British tv shows. With the exception of The Office, does it ever work? We have BBC America for a reason. Unless David Tennant is going to do the FOX version, I won’t be tuning in. Originality FOX, please. Wait you don’t like original programming.

No the people involved with the UK version are not involved with the making of the US version of Being Human. They simply sold the premise, and therefore get billing (and money) for the US version. But they are not involved with the actual producation of the show.

Broadchurch is mesmerizing drama – the more episodes you watch the deeper you become invested in the story, though I have to say it grabs you from episode one. It’s one of those stories where you don’t want to wait a week for the next episode. For some reason, Showcase in Canada is showing two new episodes per week. Thank you Showcase. Olivia Colman, what a find she is. I can see already why Meryl Streep called her “divinely gifted”. I never did watch the Dr. Who series, but David Tennant does a great job in this character as well. Looking forward to the rest of the episodes. Will also watch Necessary Roughness and Royal Pains.

Just reading that quick summary of Baby Daddy and I was already rolling my eyes at Ben. He’s the worst character and has gotten more annoying this season. However Tucker has gotten better and the rest of the cast is great. Can’t wait for Melissa & Joey and Baby Daddy!
